Reach Out to a Restaurant
I will ask 2 restaurants to switch to making items like disposable utensils, straws and napkins available upon request only.
Week 1 Focus: Recycling and Composting
Recycle Plastic Bags
Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 10 plastic bags by bringing them to a drop-off.

I will find out where to take the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.
At Home
Start Backyard Composting
My household will set up a backyard bin to compost our fruit and vegetable scraps.
